The 2020 season is over for the New York Mets but it’s never too early to look ahead to 2021. A new owner should be taking over in Steve Cohen, but before we look at their offseason schedule we can discuss the Mets’ 2021 schedule. The league dropped the slate in the middle of summer camp, allowing it to get overlooked a bit in the midst of the excitement for the upcoming season. Here is the full slate, courtesy of Anthony DiComo’s Twitter, and let’s break down some interesting aspects of it. It is worth mentioning that this could be altered if the coronavirus pandemic is not under control by April, but as of right now we will operate under the assumption that this goes off as planned.
- The Mets begin the season on the road on Thursday, April 1 against the Washington Nationals. The team’s season-opening road trip features three games against Washington and three in Philadelphia against the Phillies.
- The Mets’ home opener is scheduled for Thursday, April 8 against the Miami Marlins. The opening homestand features three with the Marlins and another three games against the Phillies.
- The interleague schedule rotation won’t reset so the Mets will face off with the American League East again this season. The Mets will play a pair of two-game series with Baltimore and Boston while hosting Toronto and traveling to Tampa Bay.

Once again, we get 6 games against a formidable Yankee team, while other teams play crappier inter league teams. Stupid.
